RCHS Buffaloes opened their competition season last Saturday at Rock Creek. The forensicators came out swinging with a 2nd place team trophy out of 20 teams in attendance, with only a 3 point difference for 1st, and 7 qualifications for state competition. Humorous solo finalists both qualifying for state were Julian Swank with 1st place, and Taylor Peters, with 3rd place. Julian qualified a 2nd event for state competition, placing 2nd in duet acting with Haidyn Price. Haidyn broke a 2nd event into finals, placing 6th in serious solo. Extemporaneous speaking saw Owen Doyle in 1st and Samuel Anderson in 2nd, both qualifying for state in 2 events respectively. Samuel's 2nd qualification was in oration, with 2nd place, while Owen's was a 1st place in impromptu speaking. Other finalists included Samantha Poppe with 4th in oration, and John Murdock placing 6th in Impromptu. The team was rounded out with students: Sam Poppe, Amelia Williams, Peyton Splichal, Layna Canfield, and Ren Wright in the very competitive prose and poetry categories. Buffs return to competition this Thursday in Lincoln, KS. Go Buffs!
